Welcome World!!!! You have just entered the made-for-TV-movie that is our engagement and upcoming wedding. I’m Olivia and my fiancé’s name is Michael. We are both native South Louisianans and we love all things SOUTH! Our wedding is planned for November 2012, which seems like it’s a lifetime away!
My fiancé is an amazing man and let me say up front that I am blessed to have him in my life. We met at church but if you know us you know it was not at all that simple. HE STALKED ME!!!! Although we were at the same church I did not know him. He requested me as a friend on Facebook, and I accepted because he was a member of the church. My thought was “oh one of my church members”. I also knew he was related to my pastor so I wasn’t worried about him being a psycho! Well one weekend I went to visit one of my sorority sisters in Dallas. She and I had just come in from a fun night out and I decided to check my emails. I had an email from Mike and although I was hesitant to respond I did. Many emails and phone calls later and here we are...Boring story? Don't worry if you ask Mike his version, it will contain flying monkeys and unicorns!
The Proposal: After a very long and stressful week we decided to go do what we do best....EAT. We met with his sister and brother-in-law under the guise of planning a surprise event for his parents. During the evening of food and fun, Mike slipped a little black box onto the table. Out of the corner of my eye I saw the box and immediately freaked...and I guess as they say the rest was history.
Our plan is that our wedding will be a weekend of fun, family, and fellowship. It will be classy and elegant, while maintaining our southern sense of style with food and music. We can’t wait!! And we can’t wait to share our planning with everyone.
Talk to you soon,
Bride Olivia
